it's been a tremendous diplomacy black eye for the united states for years. but i don't think it's viable to return the yemenis in particular to their own governments. we have to come up with another solution and probably that means some form of military commissions holding them outside the federal criminal justice system. i do not believe moat of these people can be prosecuted successfully, particularly since many were maltreated while in u.s. custody, and we don't have adequate chain of custody of evidence. >> general mccaffrey, thanks so much. it's good to see you. >> good to be with you, chris. >>> for more on the investigation into the christmas day plot, plus how some are questioning the worth of pat-down searches at the airport, head to our website, msnbc.com. >>> other big stories we have been following for you this morning, serious snowfall expected in the midwest over the next couple of days. lake-effect snow could drop 10 to 14 inches of snow in areas east of cleveland. nbc meteorologist bill karins following the forecast for us today. bill, what d

as far as the white house is concerned, alex, he's the president of the united states, the world keeps intruding. we have been riveted here, have policymakers, and administration officials, by the christmas day attempted bombing, by the fallout over that. that two-week review, rather rapid review conducted, the president coming out, hoping to put that behind them now as a matter of public perspective and starting to refocus on jobs, they hope to have the health care bill done by the state of the union address, but that date keeps getting pushed back as well because house and senate democrats need all the time they can to work out a compromise between those bills. so a lot is on the plate. but the primary focus as far as the political focus here and the public relations focus, democrats really want to start focusing on jobs, alex. >> okay, mike, thank you as always. >>> sunday on "meet the press," david gregory will speak with arnold schwarzenegger and dnc chairman governor governor tim kaine and michael steele. >>> rudy giuliani says it was a slip of the tongue when he said there had b
